Found in Translation

A phenomenon where meaning, intensity, or significance is not just preserved but Amplified or Exaggerated during communication. Unlike "Lost in Translation," where meaning is diluted(, or Lost), this occurs when people or cultures—especially those with a tradition of storytelling, discussion, or debate—naturally embellish, add layers, or inflate details while conveying information. This often happens without an actual language or medium change but within the same cultural or linguistic setting.
Found in Translation:
“BROOO, you should have seen it! Two fully grown men in the middle of the street after one of them crashed into the other's car. Just like a Bollywood climax scene! One guy was ready to throw hands, and the other looked like he was about to pull off a WWE move! The crowd was waiting for fireworks... AND THEN…

In walks this, badass traffic cop, doesn’t say much, just waves his hand like a pro, and says: ‘Chalo, nikal.’

AND BOOM! Like magic, the two lions hiding their tail, just got in their cars and left like obedient schoolboys. 🤣”

Real Event:
Two people got into a nasty verbal fight after a minor car scratch incident in the middle of the road.
They were about to escalate, but a traffic officer stepped in and simply said, "Bas, chalo. Nikal lo!" (Enough, just move along!).

Founding Father

An extreme case of flunking high school. In which the individual stays more than 5 years in the same school. Above the super senior, a student that has been at the school longer than 98 percent of the student population and even some teachers and faculty.
High school typically lasts 4 school years. Well at least it's designed to be that way. Although there is a handful of students whom may excel and finish a year early or others who stay an extra year to catch up on credits.
Person 1: Bro who's that guy over, he looks like he's in his mid 20s!
Person 2: Oh that's just Kyle.

Bro's been here since 2015!
Person 1: Wait...
That was 7 years ago.

Person 2: Ik, bro's a literal founding father of this campus.

I found a purple rock!

A cheerful non sequitur and glorious escape hatch from awkward, controversial, or brain-melting conversations. When someone exclaims, “I found a purple rock!”, they are essentially waving a shiny distraction to derail a discussion that has taken an uncomfortable, heated, or overly complicated turn. It is the verbal equivalent of changing the subject faster than you can say tax policy or crypto investing.

Use it when the conversation drifts toward politics, religion, sex, or any other topic that makes you wish you were home talking to your cat. The beauty of it? Nobody can argue with a purple rock.

Author’s Note:
Inspired by years of dodging family dinner debates and surviving small talk with strangers. Because sometimes, the only way out of a bad conversation is geological.
Example:
A: “So, how do you really feel about the election results?”
B: “I found a purple rock!”
A: “…Cool! Where?”

Example:
A: “So how’s your love life going?”
B: “I found a purple rock!”
